    I just got the FitBit Flex today and so far I am loving it. I use to have the FitBit Zip, but I lost one and the other became victim to the washer. With the FitBit Flex, you simple wear it around your wrist and it is set-it-and-forget-it! It also comes in cool colors too.

    I have both and wear both. I bought the Fitbit because it was cheaper than the Nike Fuel Band and did more things. I was then given the Fuel band as a gift and while the Fuel Band is flashier if I had to pick I would go with the Fitbit. My Fuelband tracks "Fuel" points which is a cool little display that grows from red to yellow to green. When you reach you goal for the day the display lights up and you feel pretty accomplished. The Fitbit has a flower that slowly grows with the more steps you take. The Fuelband tracks Nike Fuel, steps, calories and tells me the time. The Fitbit does all of those things plus it tracks stairs/elevated steps, distance/miles covered and has a pretty cool sleep monitor and alarm (which is awesome because it won't wake up your partner).

    I thought about selling one but decided to keep both because the Fuelband now serves as my watch on my wrist and because I like to see myself reaching my Nike Fuel goal everyday. The Fitbit goes right in my pocket and serves as my pedometer. My verdict would be to go with the Fitbit because not only is it cheaper ($99 vs $149) but its just flat out better than the Nike Fuel band.

    You need to be Facebook friends, know their e-mail address, or have a link to their profile URL. People post their URLs in the Fitbit Users forum. Copy & paste into your browser, then click the "add friend" button at top left below the name.
